3. CARBON NEUTRAL BY 2025,
MOBILITY
Some major goals for 2025:
» 2/3 of all driven trips in Copenhagen are by bike or public
transport
» 20 pct. more passengers use public transport
» Public transport is carbon neutral
» All buses are changed to zero emission buses by
2025.

7. TRANS MUNICIPAL
BUS LINES
• Municipalities have to
agree on requirements for
bus services of common
routes
• Cooperation agreement
on how to manage e-bus
services
 Cost sharing
 Charging infrastructure in public
space

8. URBAN CHARGERS
• Problems
• Tender for bus operation gives little time for operators to
get permits from relevant municipalities
• Technology neutrality foster better prices and more
robust operation
• Buying a few chargers for a few lines is expensive.
• Ownership of chargers after contract
• Lines running in more than one municipality
• Solution: Framework contract
• Agreement on deployment and maintenance of
charging infrastructure in public space
• Output power options: 150 kW, 300 kW or 450 kW
• Framework contract runs for 3 years with option on
extension in up to 5 years (+ 12 years of operation)

9. PRICE  BUS OPERATION
TENDER
• Charge point operator calculate price:
• Grid connection
• cabling to power electronic cabinets
• Transformer (if needed)
• Special needs for design (of cabinets) and
vegetations
• Chargers and power electronics
• Total price for charger at each end
station enters the bus operation tender as
a cost in case operator use opportunity
charge
• Technology neutral bus operation tender

10. STEPS TO 100% ZE-BUSES
• Trial, overnight charged buses
2014-2015
• Trial, opportunity charged buses
2016-2019 (ongoing)
• ZE Buses in Roskilde from
summer 2019
• ZE Buses in Copenhagen from
december 2019 – 41 buses
